Phillies owner Bill Giles: Phillies will start winning after June 15

I had a chance to talk to Phillies owner Bill Giles and his lovely wife Nancy at the World Affairs Council event for former British Prime Minister Tony Blair. Giles, unlike many pro sports teams owners, is always understated. He and his wife were sitting in the cheap seats at this event.

Giles said, "The Phillies will start winning after June 15." Not following sports, I do not know the significance of that date.
